ABSTRACT:
A projectile for shooting from the muzzle of a shotgun formed with a nose cone connected to a launching tube by an interconnecting body. The nose cone has a weighted portion for providing aerodynamic characteristics thereto and a frangible portion. Upon impact against a target, the frangible portion breaks allowing the nose cone walls to deform in a mushroom-like manner, spreading the load over a larger area, thereby diminishing the amount of damage to a target to that of a nose cone which did not spread and mushroom from the breaking of frangible material therein.
